Karl Marx and Communism

Karl Marx was german and created the idea communism. He doesn't like the idea industrial revolution. He doesn't agree with the workers in europe He thought that the works had power over the landlords. This made him think of Communism were the governments would control everything and the people cant do nothing about it. He wanted every body to work for the same money and saw that they all were treated equal.

Karl Marx and The Industrial Revolution

karl marx was born on may 5th,1818. He created communism and dint like the idea of industrial revolution because he thought it wasn't fair for people. he thought people should be payed the same money. Some people work harder than others and still get payed the same. communism is still around today like in cuba. communism is control by the governments like the house u live in and cars. This led to people leaving the countries because its not fair for people.

The Enlightment

The Enlightenment was for new ways of people to come up with many ideas. John Locke an english philosopher and an enlightenment thinker, he had many ideas. His idea influenced people like Thomas Jefferson to write the declaration of independence. On july 4 we celebrate a special day for our independence's.
The declaration of independence is an example of an enlightenment, it's written by a group of people from america which they were also enlightenment thinkers. It's about civil rights in America. To be free and have happiness. This change the way people think in America, for example it gave people the right to vote and every man was equal.
so now we get to chose our government and president to not give another to much power its called "The Three Branches of Government". It includes, the Legislative Branch, Judicial Branch, and The Executive Branch.

Copernicus and The Trial of Galileo

The Scientific Revolution was a theory of 2 Geocentric and the Heliocentric. The Heliocentric theory was a theory about the sun still and the our world moves around it. Geocentric theory is that the world its at the center of the universe and we don't move. Geocentric theory was the first theory to be said at known, but a person name Galileo wants to prove that theory wrong to go with his theory which is heliocentric.

Geocentric and Heliocentric 2 theories of one to be proven right. Geocentric theory was said by the catholic church which today is known as the wrong theory. Galileo's theory was right cause u all know that the sun is at the center and we orbit around the sun like the other planets. But Galileo was put under arrest of believing in his beliefs.

-Scientific Revolution-The Scientific Method-

The scientific revolution was a new way of thinking that challenenged the Ancient Greeks and Romans. People continued to beleive in stuff that weren't showen or proven until the Scienitfic Revolution they belive in what other people said. No one would not ask no one to prove there answer or at least give a hint. Scientific revolution is knowen as a error.

Many of us students uses a similar method to the scientific method. we use this method because we have to prove our answer buy details or have details to know why its doing that or how. my thoughts of the scientific method is that its better to use u prove your answer and how u got it not like the scientific revolution know as an error.

Evolution. Creation

Evolution is when you evolve to something different and it say it is usually good not all the time thou. Evolution can make you do many things that u couldn't do before , evolving to a completely different thing or creature.
Creation is when to create something causing it to exist bringing the world and the universe into existence. like us were created by god and he created the earth then we brought this world in to existence how we live and do things.
I believed in creation because we had to be created buy something we couldn't just be there forever. so god created us, and we evolved to by nature thats how we grow old and how we live and die.
